Why Standards Need Curriculum in VET systems
Thursday | 13 March 2025 | 10:10 AM – 10:45 AM
Standards are critical for driving consistency and quality in complex systems. In VET systems like Australia’s, standards expressed in units of competency describe desirable learning outcomes. However, curriculum -the bridge between these standards and learner’s needs- has long been neglected in VET. This presentation will explore the content of the curriculum, its importance in a standards-based system, and how its principles can address the challenges of building a flexible and innovative workforce.
KEY TAKEAWAYS:
- Discover key curriculum principles that enhance flexibility and innovation in VET
- Understanding the role of curriculum in mediating between learner’s current knowledge and competency standards.
